It's hard to quit, but it's the perfect marriage!

Zhu Xi wrapped her arms around his waist, ignoring his teasing.

She listened to his steady heartbeat and counted a few beats.

"Okay, go buy it quickly, I'm so busy today."

Zhou Yinghuai smiled at her and said, "I'll go now."

The two were separated briefly.

Zhu Xi pulled a T-shirt out of the closet and quickly put it on.

She loosened her low ponytail and ran her fingers through her hair to gather it up a couple of times.

Soon, a high ponytail was achieved.

She looked at herself in the mirror and applied a bright red lipstick.

She pursed her lips, and with a "pop," the cabinet door closed.

There was a knock on the dormitory door, and Zhu Xi thought it was Zhou Yinghuai returning.

She rolled her eyes, went to open the door, and said, "Here's a piece of your strawberry egg..."

With a piece of cake stuck in her throat, Zhu Xi frowned as she looked at Yu Qingge at the door.

"What are you doing here?"

Yu Qingge looked her up and down. "I brought Aunt Xin to the hospital and thought I'd drop by to see you."

As she spoke, she shook the food box in her hand, "A friend gave me some strawberries, so I brought them to you."

Zhu Xi remained unmoved.

Yu Qingge then explained with a smile, "Aunt Xin went to the surgery department to visit a friend."

With a sneer, Zhu Xi stepped aside to let the man in.

Just as they were about to close the door, Yu Sui suddenly slipped in.

Zhu Xi was startled.

Her eyebrows furrowed, and she clutched her chest, still shaken.

Yu Sui laughed heartlessly, "What are you thinking? This little trick scared you like this."

Yu Qingge, who had already entered the dormitory, placed the fruit she brought on the table and looked back at the brother and sister, one making a fuss and the other calm.

A smile played on his lips. "Yu Sui, stop fooling around. Let Zhu Xi in."

Yu Sui raised an eyebrow and walked in. "Sis, you don't know that she and that little girl Zhu Hao made me angry last night."

"Zhu Hao is the child of Zhu Xi's father's second marriage. That little girl can drive people crazy."

Yu Qingge began, "Yesterday was Zhu Xi's birthday."

"Knowing it was her birthday, I bought her flowers." Yu Sui walked in by himself. "I'm out of money, and she knows that but won't lend me any."

"Big sister is the best; she buys me everything."

Zhu Xi stood at the door, coldly watching the siblings being affectionate together, and watching Yu Sui and Yu Qingge act coquettishly.

She didn't move, but glanced out into the hallway.

His eyes were empty.

Yu Qingge took the birthday gift she had prepared for her out of her bag. "Zhu Xi, this is your birthday present."

"Sorry, I was supposed to give it to you yesterday, but something came up and I couldn't."

She pursed her lips. "There were also congratulatory messages."

There was light in one corner of the desk.

Two gifts, one in the light, one in the shadow.

Yu Sui was surprised, "Sis, when did you prepare this for Brother? I've never heard you mention it before."

As he spoke, he was about to open it.

Yu Qingge stopped her, "Since there are already people wishing you well, it wouldn't be good to neglect to offer congratulations."

She looked at Zhu Xi, "I don't have a congratulatory address, could you mail it to him for me? And while you're at it, could you also send him a birthday greeting?"

"Then you can give me a car for my birthday." Yu Sui stopped, "If you give me a car, Yu Qinghuan will give me a motorcycle. Congratulations..."

"I have no money." Zhu Xi was in a bad mood and had no interest in giving any birthday gifts. "I have to go to work."

Yu Sui was taken aback, and only then did he notice the blood-stained tape on the back of her hand.

"Sis, why are you on an IV drip?"

Zhu Xi was so frightened by this hand that she clutched it to her chest for a long time.

Yu Sui: "Mom, what's wrong? You have a fever, and she was busy visiting other people this morning."

Zhu Xi ripped off the tape, and a sharp pain shot through the back of her hand, tearing at her heart.

"Because I am cruel and heartless, and I bring misfortune to my parents; because I am unlucky."

She looked up, and finally gave them the order to leave, "So, don't get close to me! Otherwise, you won't even know how you died!"

Yu Sui didn't understand. She thought of the fireworks last night and the natural intimacy between Zhou Yinghuai and her.

"And what about Zhou Yinghuai? You're husband and wife, and he's close to you, yet you stay far away from him?"

Yu Sui chatted with Yu Qingge, "Sister, the fireworks extravaganza at the Imperial View yesterday was the envy of the entire Libei area!"

"Did Zhou Yinghuai prepare this?" Yu Qingge smiled. "Besides making money, does he even know about these things?"

Zhu Xi's heart clenched again, but this time it wasn't the sudden, forceful trampling that tugged at her.

This time, it turned into a tingling and throbbing sensation, like being pricked by countless needles.

There's also a lingering fear that I haven't felt in a long time.

She gripped the doorknob, hearing footsteps approaching in the hallway.

Her delicate fingertips turned white as she sighed and closed her eyes.

She opened her mouth and said, "What's wrong with Zhou Yinghuai? I don't love him!"
